AWANA IN THE LIFE OF A STUDENT<br />
changing eternity for a child<br />
means walking in relationship with her as<br />
she decides to put her trust in the cross and<br />
resurrection of Christ. It is shepherding a child’s<br />
heart toward salvation and guiding her into a<br />
life of discipleship. This is what Awana has done<br />
for over 65 years; it’s how we are reaching 3.5<br />
million kids around the world today. And it’s the<br />
heartbeat of what Awana feels it must do into<br />
the future.<br />
“ me and my friends<br />
have invited many<br />
people [to awana ]<br />
because i want<br />
them to learn that<br />
Jesus loves<br />
them. ”<br />
“Me and my friends have invited many people<br />
[to Awana] because I want them to learn that<br />
Jesus loves them. When I invite friends, I pray<br />
that they can come, and afterwards I pray that<br />
they got a full understanding.”<br />
For Emily, the Gospel means everything. She<br />
has not only grown in a knowledge of the Bible,<br />
but Emily also understands the importance of<br />
introducing others to Jesus. She regularly invites<br />
friends to church and prays that the Lord would<br />
be real to them. The leaders at Emily’s Awana<br />
club have taught her what it means to follow<br />
Jesus and invite others along on the journey of<br />
faith as well.<br />
